Cook, Eat, Clean: The Eco-Friendly Tool Every Kitchen Needs

Everyday I try my best to cook food at home and I encourage you to do so as well. About as much as I cook, I probably complain about doing dishes and cleaning up which is half the battle! Since I spend a lot of time in my kitchen I am always looking for things to help me out and make life easier.

Between trying to cook as often as I can and having a toddler around I am always doing dishes and wiping down the kitchen. I noticed I was using way too many paper towels so I went searching for a reusable cloth so I could save a few trees. I experimented with a few until I came across a great line of products by a company called Twist. The sponges and clothes are plant based and biodegradable so when you are done with the product, you can throw it out sans guilt!

Besides being good for the environment, unlike typical sponges, they don’t seem to get that old sponge smell. I got the same use out of my Twist sponge and cloth as I did the mainstream name brands but I felt a lot better when they finally went in the garbage.

I know I usually write about my ‘Shop Like Me‘ posts about food items but if I ask you to cook everyday you are certainly going to be cleaning too. These Twist products made my life easier and my kitchen cleaner so I hope you can find them for sale at a store near you soon! I bought mine at Whole Foods and Fresh Market but you can check their website to see if there is a vendor near you who sells them too. Happy cooking and happy cleaning!
